The Importance of a Companion {Secrets Revealed}

Do you remember Daisy? I recently posted this picture of her on Instagram (@thegentleflower), but I thought I'd share it here as well.

I crocheted Daisy 3 years ago, without following a pattern. I was inspired by pictures I saw on the internet, and tried making my own version. After I made her, she goes with me everywhere on my travels. She's been so many places! - California, Nevada, Arizona, Toronto, Chicago, Michigan, New York, Italy, etc.

It's nice having Daisy as a companion. It may sound childish, but I find comfort in inanimate objects. She makes me feel safe, and I think everyone needs that no matter what age, don't you think? And I always feel extra cool and like I'm kind of getting away with something whenever I walk through security at the airport, because no one can see her, except me and the scanner-person. We share our own little secret, and they have no idea that the doll is mine ;)

Is there something special you take with you on your travels? I'd love to hear your stories in the comments below :)

About Me

I love to make things. Creating things gets me in a certain state of mind that is extremely peaceful and serene. I could sit for hours making and making things. Even if my shoulders start to ache, I just keep going. At the moment I love jewelry-making and crocheting. I also love writing. Through this blog I want my crafts to be put out there - out, into the world. Hopefully this blog will give my jewelry a voice of it's own, as it is yearning to be heard.
